The Neighborhood:
The Mount is an absolute gem! It boasts easy access to Downtown, the airport, the North Side (Stadiums) and all other points East/West/North and South. We have a world renowned City View on Grandview Ave. Our main business district is located at Shiloh Street and offers great stops for lunch, dinner, a quick coffee or to grab some drinks! Be sure to check out the 10+ miles of hiking trails offered on the Emerald View Trail System. If you dig Architecture, Chatman Village is nationally recognized for its design and function, while your in that part of the neighborhood grab a cup of joe from Cafe Cravings, or grab a cold beer and some wings at the Bigham Tavern.

It is about a $8 uber/lyft ride to any of the stadiums/arenas as well as the convention center.


For groceries, bottle shop for beer, bakery, a few Restaurants, and the liquor store are all located on or near Shiloh. It is our main street on Mt. Washington and its located about 5 minutes from the house. The Grocery Store - Shop and Save - is at the intersection of Virginia and Shiloh. Shiloh is a great place to park and walk down Grandview as well to see the city at night.

Getting Around:
There are numerous options for public transportation - it is best to use a mapping app if that is how you plan on getting around.

The historic inclines are great for taking a ride up and down the hill and enjoying the view!

Lyft/Uber are usually the easiest ways to catch a ride.

There is a smart lock installed on front door for guest access.

Great location and updated home close to Pittsburgh. Lots of beds and bathrooms. Stairs are steep and 3 stories. It’s easier to park in back for entering home. Overall a great house

Beautifully Remodeled Home!
The home was very nice, and having been originally from the area, it was fun to see how a traditional Pittsburgh home had been remodeled, yet holding so much of the original character. The kitchen had what we needed, the house was spacious with plenty of room for our group. I gave 4-stars because the beds were not very comfortable and at a minimum could have used better quality/newer bed linens. Overall we enjoyed our stay.

Great Location & perfect for large group!
I think the house could have been cleaner & there weren’t many common necessities like cups or garbage bags or paper towels - the bathrooms didn’t have hand towels so we had to use a washcloth. But with that being said - it was very affordable for the location!! The number of rooms/beds & bathrooms was perfect! Cheap Uber rides to essentially anywhere you want to bar hop in the city! Great communication as well!

Corey was great. House is just like in pics. Very clean and comfortable. Park in back to avoid steps. Made a few suggestions on replacing sheets and blinds. We would absolutely rent again if ever back in Pittsburgh. Thank you Corey! NB. The kitchen is lovely!

My family really enjoyed our trip to Pittsburgh. This property and accommodations were great! The house had more than enough room for the 6 of us (all adults). The host was very responsive to messages.

Wonderful property
10 of us stayed for a Bachelorette weekend, the house was perfect, plenty of beds and bathrooms to accommodate everyone, it was clean and beautifully decorated. Only negatives we really had was not enough towels for everyone, thankfully some of us brought our own, and the mattresses were extremely uncomfortable on all but 1 bed on the 3rd floor. Otherwise the host was very quick to answer questions, and the house overall was wonderful, would highly recommend.

Great Mount Washington Home
The place was better than advertised. It was clean, in a perfect spot to get anywhere in Pittsburgh quickly. We felt safe in the neighborhood, and a few of the neighbors struck up conversation with us. I would definitely stay here again. Corey was a fantastic host and kept in touch with us our entire stay to make sure we were comfortable.

Great Family House
The house itself was ideal for our combined families who were in town for my son's wedding. While most everyone else attending the wedding stayed in a hotel, there is no way that would have been a comfortable arrangement for our 3 year old granddaughter since we were altogether for more than just a couple of days. The multiple levels gave her plenty of space to explore and it was wonderful to have the lovely front porch to sit on and side yard to play in. Three and a half bathrooms was probably the number one reason we chose this house. Each bathroom was updated and very clean.

Nice DIY Reno
Everything was fine. I do agree with other VRBO guests that the living room sofa has many stains, and even an oder to it. We placed blankets on it before sitting on it. Stair rugs should be replaced. Would be nice to have a king sized bed....at least in the master. I make these comments because I also rent out our home at the shore....and I keep very high standards for accommodations for my guests. But again, overall, the property was fine.
